Is there nothing that deters foxes?
A rottweiler usually works. I'd open the door, loudly scream OFF! at him and chase him down the garden either waving your arms or banging something loudly like a couple of pan lids. Scare the bejeezus out of him every time he comes near and he'll start going somewhere else eventually. Urban foxes really are very bold and cheeky as they have no fear of people. They won't attack people so will run away if you chase them, but they are very intelligent and great opportunists, so never underestimate them.
I live on a main road and we have a pair that live about 200 yards away that regularly raise cubs - not this year though. I think the dog fox has lost his mate because I haven't heard or seen the vixen for months. I feel a bit sorry for him as he looks quite forlorn and tries to make friends with my dogs - he follows us at a discrete distance at night and sits waiting for us if he's in front. He's a total nuisance as the dogs want to eat him. Luckily Frank lives in the Fort Knox of bunny abodes right now and Mr Fox would need his own power tools to get at him.
